IIRC, you have to issue F12 commands before some given distance from the pit entrance.

Me thinks:
  • open your own new thread
  • give credits to Erazotropa where due
  • put a link to the original thread (this one)
  • edit this thread, removing ALL your versions (edit reason: new thread opened at [url]http://blablabla[/url]...)
  • let this thread die
  • let's all move to the new thread

Quote from thisnameistaken :...I've never really seen the point in buying expensive gear if you're just going to chuck it in the back of a van...

Maybe because not everybody chucks it in the back of a van??

Cort are nice guitars don't worry. Don't forget to have it setup, or at least checked by someone.
As far as home amps, valve Vs. transistor, keep in mind that, yes, valve amps are better, sound better and all that, BUT valves need a louder volume to really "give" what they're born for, otherwise they sound "empty", so it really depends on where you live/how much "noise" you can produce before police knocks at your door ;-) 15 Watts at max volume are more than enough in a flat.

Transistor amps on the opposite, can give a "distorted" sound even at lower volumes.

It also depends on what kind of music you love and play, if you "need" distortion, or need a clean sound.
The King of amps for many jazz guitarists, for example, is the Roland Jazz Chorus 120, and it is a transistor amp...(out of your budget unfortunately )
http://www.imusician.co.uk/acatalog/info_00056030.html

Try to find an amp with a headset output, if you want to practice at 3 in the morning.

Brunetti has an english site
http://www.brunetti.it/index_en.php
but it DOES NOT cost 100$

In Italy we also have these...not cheap
http://www.orlandoamps.com/

ZVex Nano Head is also very interesting, but still...expensive. At least here in Italy I found it at around 300 Euros...

Check it out on Youtube!

Line6 POD sounds a good advice (lots of sounds), but I don't know the cost

Quote from libben :...now we only need a nice "addon manager" that handles it all and can revert all changes and so on...

I think JoneSoft Generic Mod Enabler can do it.

Check these videos out then. Forgot to say that with this software you also need a webcam.
Costs (very) few bucks, but overall quality depends on your DIY ability...

I have a TrackIr 4 (bought primarily for flight-simming, before even discovering LFS); it works wonders, I couldn't do without it anymore.

Of course, it works as well with LFS and I always use it, it's just a matter of setting it up well, with proper deadzones and curves and all that, so it doesn't always move. Another thing that might need adjusting is your PC/monitor position relative to your environmental light sources (windows, reflections, direct sun-light and such).
It adds to immersion a lot, even if (at first) it can be a bit disorienting.

TIR5 must be even better than TIR4 (well, it should be!).
I'do definitely go for it, granted $ are available!

Edit1: It doesn't quit working, quality (TIR4) is top-level and still rocks after 3 heavy-duty years. It doesn't lag at all, you can adjust sensitivity and curves in every way on 6 axis (6DOF), latest software is a big improvement...well I'm totally biased!!!

Edit2: You know there are also other (free software) DIY solutions ?

Quote from logitekg25 :are you saying instead of having it create a folder for me, create one before it gets to it

Exactly.
And point the installer to THAT folder.
